Program Summary

CONNECTED links high school females with women mentors from various career backgrounds. We believe young women need access to role models who are willing to share their stories and career pathways, ultimately creating a culture of support and empowerment between successful women and young females. We welcome students pursuing all post-secondary pathways: work, university, college or apprenticeship, and those still deciding.

Throughout the dinner event, students interact with other students and several “mentors” from our community, sharing stories, career goals, and life lessons.

CONNECTED empowers and creates connections between successful women and young females.

This event gives young females the opportunity to:

  • Receive career advice and guidance from professional women
  • Develop career connections
  • Explore various career options
